Ask Dr. Dressler: More Thoughts On Mast Cell Tumors

Dr. Dressler revisits one of the most common canine cancers, particularly in the skin: mast cell tumors. (It is not mass cell tumor as is commonly thought.) In this seminar he addresses:

What we’ve learned about mast cell tumors in the last couple of years
C-kit genetic mutations and how knowing your dog’s status may help you decide how to treat the cancer
Reliable conventional treatments for mast cell tumors
Alternative treatments that have been shown to be effective
Diet considerations for dogs with mast cell tumors
The things you can do right now to help your dog
Add this information to what you learn in The Dog Cancer Survival Guide

As always, Dr. Dressler also answers questions from members about their dog’s cancer.
